Is Bill Gates of Seattle.
21 year old software developer from Redomd. No, he doesnt work for The Beast either, And Bill Gates was his real name.
Which reminds me of an incident about 8 years ago. We were having trouble with a Microsoft product, so we aired our grievences.
So here we were, expecting some second level tech to call us back... when it was The Man Himself. My IT Director nearly died of shock, it was like 1 am Seattle time and here was Gates himself, talking to a potentially major client, discussing and getting our problem fixed.
He had the fix to us in 24 hours and won us as a customer. He was polite and dont kid yourself, he knew his stuff.
I think my former IT Director still has the Email which Gates sent the patch through on his wall, printed and framed.
Ah well, back onto the P2p....
